Auto-generated, personalized Spotify playlists to keep pace while you run

Tempo Trainer is a web app which harnesses the Spotify API to generate personalized playlists for running. The user enters some basic information, like height and sex, and then selects what sources they want their playlist to be pulled from (for example, their liked songs, their playlists, their most listened to tracks). Finally, they choose a pace they want to run at. Tempo Trainer deposits a playlist in their library containing songs the user already likes that have the correct tempo to help them run at their target pace.

Using machine-learning to aid musical composition and improvisation

ML Chord Gen is a webapp which utilizes a custom-trained neural network to provide the user with novel chord progressions. The chord progressions are generated subject to a number of tunable parameters, and the user can play them back in-browser with a variety of instruments to use as a backing track for improvisation or to inspire new compositions.

The chords are generated by a recurrent neural network that was trained on a large number of jazz standards. The network uses long short-term memory layers to ensure that the chords properly flow into each other. For more details, see the Github page linked above.

A Python package for parsing and manipulating musical data

Additionally, the package has a parsing component which enables converting text files of chords to data objects, provided they adhere to the popular standard established in Christopher Harte's 2010 thesis.
